Subs dial-in for HT and 2 Channel Audio?


Hi all, I am very need to room treatment and hope someone can give me some advice on my following questions. My audio room is for both 2 channel audio and HT use. I have a pair of subs currently using for both 2 CH and HT. My room size is 17'x17' (bad room dimension). I have some DIY 4" bass traps at the corners and 2" on the first reflection point. The valvet screen curtain on the front wall and one valvet curtain on the side wall.
I have now purchased a BDF 1124P a Galaxy 140 SPL/mic and the SB Live 24 USB sound card with the required cablings and adapters.

Can I use my BDF to measure the freq. response with both subs running in stereo mode ? or should I do it one first and tune the BDF correctly before I toss in the second sub and fine tune it afterword ?

My 2Ch setup is going through my preamp and my HT setup is going through a separate receiver. My subs has 2 inputs (2CH and HT). Can I somehow using 1 BDF to eq for both 2Ch and HT setup ? The only connection between 2ch system and my HT system is my 2CH power amp has both RCA (for HT) and XLR for (2ch) switch. When I play movies, I just flip the switch to RCA and accepting signal from the receiver directly for hte L/R channels.

For 2 ch, I hear boomy when I turn the sound level higher.

Many thanks in advance..
